In style terms, these pieces are an opportunity for fashionistas to take their look to the next level -...

Urban Camouflage
Although there’s nothing wrong about being a wallflower, you’ll be anything but in this season’s head-to-toe prints. Fall’s subtle prints and darker shades were great for everyday wear, but spring calls for more excitement in the form of floral prints and busy patterns.
All-over prints were seen everywhere from the runways in Paris to the streets of New York, and in all forms too;...

Some referenced history (pristine white gloves, restricting undergarments, slim-silhouettes and modest hemlines) and others the most talked about TV shows (Mad Men, Boardwalk Empire and Downton Abbey). Meanwhile on the spring runways we saw Alexander McQueen and Dolce & Gabanna channel...

Litas and Love
Transitional shoes can be tricky. They’re the pariah of footwear - not boots, but not shoes either. We’re sometimes left scratching our heads: “Can I wear this shoe right now? Is it too hot outside? Too cold?” As a result, transitional shoes can fall into fashion’s black hole, lingering in the back of your closet for the rest of eternity. However, when it comes to crafting a smooth sift from...
